Support additional boilerplate in NOTICE file
---------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4711
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4711
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Apache or Maven Parent poms
Environment: org/apache/apache.jar.resource.bundle/1.4,
org/apache/apache/7/apache-7.pom
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
The pom includes using the maven-remote-resources-plugin to get the
resourceBundle org.apache:apache-jar-resource-bundle:1.4 which has the
"Standard" LICENSE, NOTICE, and DEPENDENCIES .vm files.
The DEPENDENCIES.vm file has already the function at the end to add
user-defined boilerplate:
#if($postDepListText)
$postDepListText
#end
It would be very useful to us to have similar code at the end of the NOTICE.vm
file:
#if($project.properties.postNoticeText)
$project.properties.postNoticeText
#end
The use case is we have many files which have the same copyright notice moved
to the NOTICES file, and would like to automatically have this included. By
doing this, we can define a common parent-pom for these files, which defines
the postNoticeText property, and have it included.
